Prince Harry is bowled out by Prince William in charity cricket match

Prince Harry lost to brother Prince William in a friendly 20/20 cricket match on Monday which aimed to raise money and awareness for the Prince”s animal charity United for Wildlife.

The cheeky Prince was on fine form as he joked around with his team, the Royal Household, which was made up of former professional cricket players.

Earlier in June this year, David and Prince William teamed up to promote the campaign.
“It”s time to choose between critically endangered species and the criminals who kill them for money. Whose side are you on” William wrote on the official website of United for Wildlife ahead of the launch.

“We are not asking for your money,” he added. “We are asking for your voice and your attention… Use the #WhoseSideAreYouOn hashtag to join the movement on Twitter and Facebook.”

Addressing the crowd, William started by saying that United for Wildlife had set out such commitments back in February.

“That was our first step,” he said. “But we knew we needed to do more to bring this trade into the open.

“Illegal wildlife trade thrives because it is hidden, it is invisible, making it easy for criminals to build and expand their violence and greed. We wanted to find a way to show the world what was happening. Our plea is this. Join us and help stop the illegal poaching.”

The illegal trade, which is worth $19billion a year, is thought to be the reason for decline of the world”s tiger population, while it is thought that up to 100 elephants are killed each day for their ivory.

In South Africa, 402 rhinos have been killed for their horns in 2014, and 95% of the rhino population has disappeared.
